In a bid to boost voter turnout for the assembly elections, Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) has launched an innovative voter awareness campaign using auto-rickshaws. Approximately 1,000 auto-rickshaws across the city now display prominent stickers urging residents to “vote without fail.”

The campaign is part of a series of initiatives by the PCMC to encourage citizens to participate in the electoral process. It aims to promote the message of voting directly in the streets, said officials. (HT PHOTO)
